So what happened this episode was kinda obvious, that Naoe would become a Master Samurai, they alluded to it strongly in the trailer from last week. Shes a character I like quite a bit~~, paticularly after this weeks episode

Looks like the next ep will reintroduce an old character...

And it did. I enjoyed it more than the prior episodes, but I'm still not having as much fun as I did with Samurai Girls. What are folks who are liking it, liking the most about it? How do you think it compares with Samurai Girls? I feel like it's really flailing around and failing in the area of plot execution. Plot is, of course, absolutely not what this show is about, but that's why the messy flailing feeling is so annoying to me--it makes that part that much more obvious and distracting from the ecchi that is the show, instead of providing a clean, simple scaffold for it. Maybe now that the whole "Samurai Bride" premise has been stated outright, things will tighten up. It's just been pretty painful getting to that point.

I agree, it flails like a fish out of water. Samurai Girls had a really good start, and the background artwork was more varied and of a higher quality. In comparison, most of the backgrounds have been around the Dojo, no floating lanterns by the riverside yet! I agree the plot has not followed through well, and could have used some better writing

Yes, there is direction: where the boobs go, ink and flowers are sure to follow...

boobs here boobs there boobs everywhere, there are times where you simply can't follow the boobs. nah wtf am i talking about, it is a bad boobs and butts.

Agreed. I love fanservice, just love it but even for me... I forgot to watch the show the past two Fridays and watched it later. Not sure I will bother this week... I love fanservice but there needs to be more.

While I've kind of given up on Samurai Bride, I had watched Samurai Girls (on Hulu), and found it much more enjoyable. Of course it's got a bouncing, jigglling scantily-dressed, plot, but carried off well. Plus (a good thing in my opinion) there is no

ya i had watched samurai girls last week just to figure out what the heck was going on in samurai bride and why a kiss would give powers like that and am glad i watched it but now that crunchy has it i wish i had waited as i don't like watching things illegally (I shamelessly wanted to watch the uncensored version so no hulu lol) but the first season was much better than bride is so far but it seems to be getting to the point now
